Er, i am not sure what you mean by "source files". Unless, you
have manually added stuff to ./build for some reason, then
you will be safe to do 'forrest clean' (or just 'rm -rf ./build')
and start again with 'forrest'.
Sure forrest does copy some source files into the build space
and i know that some projects add extra stuff in there via their
build.xml (e.g. xml-commons, cocoon) so that forrest can process it.
The only situation where you would need to worry about ./build/*
is if you use 'forrest run' and edit stuff in build/webapps then you
will need to copy the modified source back as Antonio described.
